They come by plane,
They come in wheelchairs,
They also come with cane.

The co-founder of OceanGate is planning a trip to one of the world’s deepest sinkholes.

Guillermo Söhnlein is set to lead an exploration into “Dean’s Blue Hole - an unexplored sinkhole that goes as far down as 663 feet located in the Bahamas.

Blue Marble Exploration, founded by Söhnlein after he left OceanGate, will offer the first submersible to reach the bottom of the sinkhole, where they’re set to operate “in complete darkness.”

The trip lists a number of challenges:

“‘What Lurks Beneath.’ Locals believe that Dean’s is a portal to hell and the Devil himself lurks in the black depths. Each year, several people drown in Dean’s due to a variety of misfortunes. We fully expect to find human remains and prepare to handle those situations with proper respect for the families.”
